___________________ Ramla Ali is a triple threat - humanitarian,
model and boxer. Her life inside and outside the ring represents
her ruthless refusal to quit and passion to fight for what she
believes in. In her first book, Ramla details ten key fights - a
combination of life's constant challenges and real bouts she's
endured both in and outside of the ring - that have shaped her
remarkable rise to date. From her arrival in England as a refugee
to being drawn to the energy and spirit of her first boxercise
class; from the adrenaline of her first amateur fights to how she
often powered on alone, searching for a community of women like
her, and her biggest win of all: letting love into her life. Each
relatable lesson is packed full of honesty and urgency, powering
the reader on to become their own champion. ___________________ 'No
matter where you start off in life, hard work, dedication and an
unwillingness to give up will always see you through to your
target. I hope you can take as much out of this book as I did'

turn her own immense personal achievements into positive change for
others and make a mark not only in her sport, but also in the
world' CAMILLA THURLOW 'A force for good ... Ali is tough,
self-possessed, funny and unafraid to tell it how it is' FINANCIAL
TIMES 'Ali radiates energy ... her ruthless refusal to quit has

TELEGRAPH 'Is there anything Somali-born boxing champion Ramla Ali
can't do?' VOGUE 'Here is a woman so determined and driven to meet
her goals, 'hero' doesn't seem inappropriate' STYLIST 'Ramla Ali is
an unstoppable force' ELLE
